Michael Young has been amongst the most successful and influential designers of his generation from the outset of his career. In 1992 his early Woven steel works were immediately acquired by public institutions such as Centre Pompidou and the Louvre Museum.

These last years have seen projects including a new limited edition Super Steel Stick for Pearl Lam at her Contrasts Gallery in Shanghai, new works for British company Established and Sons in Milan along side luminaries such Zaha Hadid and Future Systems, and the appointment as Creative Director of 100% Design Tokyo. Young is currently based in Hong Kong.
